Destination Wedding in Charleston at the Island House

If you're planning a destination wedding in the Lowcountry then I suggest you check out this beauty at the Island House.  Located just outside of Charleston in Johns Island, the Island House sits on the banks of the Stono River and offers up breathtaking coastal views and gorgeous sunsets.  The couple, Stuart + Gillian, hail from Scotland but had previously lived in South Carolina and the globe-trotting duo now reside in Fremantle, Australia.  So, it was no surprise that their guest list included friends and family from every corner of the world.  Pure Luxe Bride handled all the details and designed a lovely evening along the water in romantic shades of purple.  Bride Gillian wore a dreamy Jenny Packham gown with her pulled back in a gorgeous up-do from Ash & Co. Bridal.  Branch Design Studio was the brains behind the delightful centerpieces and that amazing bouquet.  After an intimate ceremony along the river, guests gathered at one, long table for dinner catered by B. Gourmet Catering.  Guests celebrated by dancing to the newlywed's favorite band from Scotland and finished the evening with an unanimous chorus of Auld Lang Syne.  Thanks to amelia + dan photography for capturing all the details!
